OK. I have a customer that upgraded to Exchange2010 from Exchange2007 and the new backups are running just fine. I started those backups to a separate storage pool from the 2007 data. Now they need some restores from the 2007 backups, but the original Exchange2007 server doesn't exist any more. As part of the upgrade to 2010 they had to uninstall 2007 on that server and then they shut it down and reloaded it for another file server.
So..we rebuilt the Exchange 2007 server in an isolated VMware environment, defined the storage groups and databases exactly the way they were originally. Got the information from TSM. I can do the restore and the logs show as applying successfully, but then everything starts to fail. This is being done to the RSG. The first error in the event log is ID: 9638 "Function 'EcGetRecoveryDbGuid' failed with error 0x8004010f. " I get absolutely no hits doing a Google search on that function. That's followed by another ID: 9638: "Function 'ErrESECBRestoreComplete' failed with error 0xc7fe1f42. " Then an ID:904 from ESE BACKUP "Information Store (1800) Callback function call ErrESECBRestoreComplete ended with error 0xC7FE1F42 Database not found." I'm getting no where doing google searches. I've done a restore without checking the recovery box and the log files and a RESTORE.ENV are in the TEMPLOGS directory. That works just fine. I can then run the ESEUTIL /CC and see that the log files apply just fine, but then failures above. Any help on this would be appreciated? Is there any link out there on doing a complete Exchange 2007 rebuild? What do I need to minimally do to be able to restore. "Life is not about waiting for the storms to pass...
